LOCATION

In reference to the map below, the
3rd St. Promenade Dance is presently and typically being held at our SECONDARY SPOT, NOT at the Primary One (where it all historically started), on the 1200th block between Wilshire & Arizona Blvd! In other words, it's located just 3 blocks North of Santa Monica's Place Mall and just South of Wilshire Blvd.

Typically, we're dancin' near th
e Pottery Barn store, or near the FatBurger restaurant, or near the Old Navy retail store.  When you're within the general vicinity, just listen for the swingin' and jivin' music and a large number of people swing dancing to their hearts content...YOU CAN'T MISS US!!
